At first I thought this was some lame series about real life Nascar stars. Then I wondered who the creepy psycho on the cover was supposed to be. Then I clicked the preview and discovered it’s actually a lame fantasy series about a team of Nascar drivers who get super driving powers from a “mysterious explosion.” Then I saw that the story was entitled, “RREV!-ALATION!”

In between shooting film cameos, Stan “The Manga” Lee found time to create a new character - Ultimo - with popular Japanese artist Hiroyuki Takei. Click the preview to dig the serious manga face Stan is sporting on the cover. Issa serious manga, issa serious Stan. According to this article, Stan speaks no Japanese and Takei speaks no English. I hope phrases such as Nuff Said,Excelsior and If This Be My Destiny didn’t get lost in translation.
